Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

Unlike the previsously defined FUT technique, in this technique hair follicles are extracted directly from the level of follicles on the skin. This technique is known as “non-invasive”. In FUE, no scalpels or stiches are used in the donor region and thus no visible scars are left. While extraction techniques are different in FUE and FUT, restoration techniques are identical. The method in use in our clinic is based on a technique known as F.O.X, which was first used by Dr. Ray Woods and later developed by Dr. William Rasman.

When Dr. Rassman declared the scientific results of FUE method, which he called F.O.X Procedure, in ISHRS Conference held in New York in October 2003, our scientific team studied this extraction method. We first carried out a FUE operation in January 2004. Today, thanks to the corrections in the technic made by our staff, our staff can transplant 1500 to 2000 follicular units in a session. Cosmetics wise, the results of both FUE and FUT operations are equally satisfying. The only difference between these two is that one of them leaves scars in the donor region while the other doesn’t.
